The "B" sports = The ones worth 60 points instead of 20 points

Football, Basketball, Baseball = fine with all of these
Outdoor Track & Field = acceptable, especially with Arkansas, LSU, and now Texas A&M in the SEC
Soccer = acceptable, not an SEC thing, but enough conferences play it
Lacrosse = Except for the ACC and Syracuse - who is about to join the ACC - Who plays this?

Besides giving the ACC a "participation ribbon" and the free points, why is Lacrosse 60 points, and not just 20 points like Golf and Tennis?



In the current Top 10 for the Men's Capitol One Cup
Kentucky has points for the Men's Basketball and Rifle
Alabama has points for the Men's Football
LSU has points for Men's Football and Indoor Track & Field

All that could be surpassed by the Tar Heels doing well in soccer and lacrosse!

EDIT : apology for post on wrong booard, already requested admins to move to SEC Rant

UNC pays refs and capitol one to set up a system that is to their advantage.

Down with UNC

eta: Pretty sure most ACC schools dont have lacrosse teams btw. DOn't think we have one.

It is the A10, some random small schools, UVA, Maryland, UNC, Cuse, and Duke

Post the standings, UF won the indor champs in T&F. Sec looks like it will win in baseball. I want UF to have a mens soccer team, there is alot of talent in SEC country for soccer. I am sure SEC would compete with any school for soccer championships

There's a few sports GT doesn't do that you'd expect, like soccer. No lacrosse either (LIGAF)

When a small school like johns Hopkins has been a perennial leader for decades, and most people couldn't even tell johns Hopkins is a university, let alone know where it is, it is obvious that lacrosse isn't that significant of a sport nationwide.

A&M brings a strong Quiddich team to compete with LSU's for national dominance

How many points does Quiddich get? 80?
